Erdős problem 619

Erdős Problem 619 [EGR98, Er99]: For a triangle-free graph GG let hr(G)h_r(G) be the smallest number of edges that need to be added to GG so that it has diameter rr (while preserving the property of being triangle-free). Is it true that there exists a constant c>0c>0 such that if GG is a connected graph on nn vertices then h4(G)<(1−c)nh_4(G)<(1-c)n?

Erdős, Gyárfás and Ruszinkó [EGR98]: there is a constant c>0c > 0 such that for every nn there exist connected triangle-free graphs GG on nn vertices with h3(G)≥n−ch_3(G) \geq n - c.
